ALL IN ONE

CASINO HOST SALES Telemarketing & Pd TRAINING Seminar 2 +hours – One of a kind unique seminar containing valuable information on casino host sales techniques. From opening the list to closing the sale on the phone. Contacting new, inactive, declining and current casino guests. Utilizing these sales tactics both on the phone and in person. Topics include: Controlling the conversation, qualifying all guests, voicemails, emails/texts, protecting the ROI, driving incremental business, how to examine and understand ADT, the importance of gaming history, booking events, confirming events, following up, delivering the VIP experience and more.

Signature One-on-One training – I truly believe and have assessed from my own experience being a host and sitting in various training’s, that you cannot teach, motivate, nor develop casino hosts by using analytics and diagnostics. That is why after my seminar, I spend approximately 55 minutes with each host (time varies depending on hosts learning skills) as they make actual phone calls utilizing all the information from my presentation. The main focus of this is to ensure hosts understand the importance of telemarketing and overcome any inhibitions. I get a first-hand evaluation revealing if the hosts have been making calls prior and if they are able to follow through with future tasks. As they make calls in my presence, we experience real time casino telemarketing and are exposed to a numerous array of situations and inevitably, call backs and bookings. Every call is different and unique and with each, an opportunity to learn materializes. I coach and support each call. In rare instances, I make actual calls myself. Finally, I supply management a report card on each host.

Deliverables:

Ensure trained individuals require sales & telemarketing skills

Ensure trained individuals understand Player Development

Protecting the ROI

Acquisition, retention, growth & reactivation

Execute surveys & evaluate results

Report cards on each individual trained

Real casino host training in real time

Over 5 years ago I formulated and designed this uniquely branded curriculum (one on one training and seminars) in telemarketing casino guests. Over the past 5 years, traveling to casinos all over America, Canada, and Morocco, I have learned invaluable information and required a plethora of experiences making calls in so many various markets and demographics including Penn Gaming properties, Indian casinos, and down to smallest of proprietors. With almost each training session I do, I modify the presentation from these learned experiences. My Signature Casino Host Telemarketing & Casino Gaming Sales Tactics is specifically designed for casino hosts interacting with the casino guest.

I’m in the trenches with the casino hosts. Calling, booking, driving revenue, working the floor, working the pit, working the slots, cutting into to new players, and so much more. I know the casino hosts challenges & their obstacles. I know the importance of driving incremental business, not being “bullied”, and protecting the ROI. All my training is customized for your property and demographics. Over 25 years of TALKING TO THE PLAYERS and casino player development experience; Slot Host, Casino Host, Marketing Manager, Director & VP of PD.

My clients and references verify the positive impact my training has had on their team but the casino hosts sing praises over how I have helped increased their numbers and helped them overcome their telemarketing inhibitions.

I stake claim to being the only casino host trainer that:

Connects mentally and instinctively with the casino hosts

Owns a unique, one of a kind training program

Observes hosts making actual calls to players

Trains Player Development in real time

Continues to modify and grow program

Has over 25 years’ experience in casino marketing and PD

Has references and testimonials from actual casino hosts
